Ramazanali Sangdoeini said the Ministry of Oil maintained energy
supply operations during a recent period of regional conflict, helping sustain
public confidence despite damage to some oil and petrochemical infrastructure.
He stated that affected facilities would be rebuilt with administration
and parliamentary support, adding that restoration efforts are expected to move
forward without significant delay.
Sangdoeini said industrial infrastructure, including facilities in the
steel, oil, and petrochemical sectors, experienced impacts during the conflict.
He noted, however, that core industrial operations have continued and that
recovery measures are underway.
The lawmaker also emphasized the role of universities and research
institutions in supporting the next phase of petrochemical development. He said
academic institutions can contribute by preparing skilled professionals with
expertise in production, maintenance, operations, safety, project economics,
and value-chain management.
In addition, Sangdoeini highlighted the potential role of a regulatory
framework in supporting the petrochemical sector’s development. He said
enhanced coordination across the industry, alongside a strengthened role for
the National Petrochemical Company, could facilitate investment, improve
alignment among producers, and support the sector’s long-term growth.
